We represent a region of thriving Black creatives, Black culture and Black lives. For us that means now, more than ever, Black Lives Matter. It is not enough for us to not be racist, we have to be explicitly and actively anti-racist. That means working to dismantle systems of oppression and seeking justice for those wronged by these systems.

AIGA Detroit has paused all in-person gatherings and events related to our community programming due to coronavirus health and safety precautions. In the interim, we are developing virtual event and programming for creative resources. To be a part of the conversation, please join our slack workspace for information. The Build Institute has a resources guide page which is updated with small business relief fund information.

Join us Friday April 12, on Instagram (@aigadetroit) say hello and ask a question, at 12:30pm, during our live conversation with Ruki Neuhold-Ravikumar, Director of Education at the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum.
